Before accepting an offer, request a current cost-of-attendance estimate for the intended degree and enrollment level, then compare it with the actual financial aid offer.

What are the work-study opportunities at Wesley Biblical Seminary?

A part-time job can help with expenses, but students should distinguish ordinary employment from Federal Work-Study. Work-Study, when offered to an eligible student, is need-based financial aid earned through an approved job; it is not a tuition discount or a guarantee of a position.

Students interested in working during their studies should ask the financial aid office about Work-Study eligibility and the office that posts student jobs. They should check expected hours against the demands of classes, ministry commitments, and commuting. A ministry placement or internship may offer relevant experience without being a paid student job.
